An Additive Manufacturing Solution for Free-Form Steel Curtain Walls

An exploration in the use of rapid manufacturing for the design and fabrication of free-form steel curtain wall systems. Focus on reconciliation of free-form geometry, system assembly, and digital workflow.

Thin glass composites: based on a structural efficiency increasing design strategy

The research focuses on the combined use of thin glass and a 3D printed spacer pattern. The goal is to design a possible solution to use thin glass in architecture.<br/>In the first part of the thesis background research on thin glass, additive manufacturing, adhesive bonding and structural geometry is conducted. This has lead to results to...
